Is a Cockatoo for You? (How to Choose the Right Bird Variety)

With so many choices, it can be tough choosing just the right pet bird for your home.

Did you grow up with a pet parakeet, so that’s the only bird for you? Do you like the look of lovebirds, but don’t know if they’re difficult to care for? Have you always dreamed of bringing a gloriously colorful parrot home? Or maybe an elegant cockatoo? Do you want your pet bird to “talk” to you? Do you want it to “sing”? Or do you want it to make as little noise as possible and just sit there and look beautiful? It can be confusing.

Well, hopefully this little book can help you to not only make the right choice, but to know how to care for it once it’s home.
